NAME

       i2pd - Load-balanced unspoofable packet switching network

SYNOPSIS

       i2pd [OPTION1] [OPTION2]...

DESCRIPTION

       i2pd  is  a  C++  implementation of the router for the I2P anonymizing network, offering a
       simple layer that identity-sensitive applications can use  to  securely  communicate.  All
       data is wrapped with several layers of encryption, and the network is both distributed and
       dynamic, with no trusted parties.

       Any of the configuration options  below  can  be  used  in  the  DAEMON_ARGS  variable  in
       /etc/default/i2pd.

       --help Show available options.

              will be silently ignored if the specified config  file  does  not  exist.   Options
              specified on the command line take precedence over those in the config file.
